Volume 9 – Chapter 101: The Cheating Curse (Part 1)

Izanagi gave birth to Tsukuyomi – the night ruler.

In Tsukuyomi Shrine, Tsukuyomi was still polite to the visiting Amaterasu Omikami despite the intense competition. This was not about strength but the issue of who was born first.

“Did Father Deity and Mother Deity really say so?”

After some private discussion, Tsukuyomi’s face changed again and again. He was the deity in charge of the night, the moon deity. The moon was clean and flawless, but the moon also had a side that couldn’t face the sun. The beautiful and unparalleled, girl-like moon deity had a gloomy face at this time.

Three Deities were fighting for Yan Wuyue’s world power, but if the demons stole the almighty rules, the power struggle between the Three Deities would become meaningless.

“Sister, did you inform Susanoo?” Tsukuyomi asked seriously after thinking for a moment.

At this moment, there were heavy footsteps in the shrine. A samurai wearing scarlet samurai armor directly broke in. None of the deities and witches outside the shrine dared to stop him.

“Amaterasu, why do you want me here?”

The visitor was the last of the Three Deities – Susanoo, the ocean ruler.

It was another private discussion.

Susanoo’s reaction was not much better than that of Tsukuyomi after hearing the news. Although Susanoo was puzzled about it, he was only wondering why the evil demon appeared so suddenly. As for the severity of having the evil demon stealing the world, Amaterasu naturally would not lie about it. It could be verified easily by asking the Father Deity and Mother Deity at Yahiro-dono.

Also, Amaterasu brought Izanagi’s token. Even if there were doubts in their hearts, Tsukuyomi and Susanoo had to obey at this moment.

“Does Father Deity intend to have the Three Deities jointly defeat the evil demon who stole the world?” Tsukuyomi pondered for a moment.

Amaterasu said, “Father Deity and Mother Deity need to stay on guard in Yahiro-dono. Once they leave, the evil demon will take advantage of it.”

The world’s origin was at the Yahiro-dono nearby Pillar of Heaven, Yan Wuyue World’s center. It was precisely the safeguarding of these two deities that the Yan Wuyue World could stay safe.

“I will transfer the subordinates right away. Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi, you two need to give all out!” Susanoo was forthright, “We know each other thoroughly. If one of us dares to hide our strength, we will know at a glance!”

Tsukuyomi said calmly, “Indeed.”

Amaterasu also nodded slowly, “Before I came, I had gathered my subordinates at Takamagahara. I had also ordered the two Munakata Muses to visit the Unripe Rice Village for investigation. By this time, we should have some news.”

Susanoo knelt and said solemnly, “No matter what evil demon it is, I will slay it with my word!”

He was the peerless fierce deity who had killed Orochi [1]. The murderous aura exuded from his body was much stronger than the other two deities.

A stream of light came to the Tsukuyomi Shrine at this time but stopped outside the shrine. It was Takiribime among the three Munakata Muses. It was just that she was not a senior like Susanoo, so naturally, she dared not break in casually.

“Takiribime, come in.” Amaterasu Omikami raised his hand.

As soon as Takiribime entered, he knelt in front of Three Deities. The Three Deities sat atop; Tsukuyomi was sitting in the middle, and the other two were at each side. After all, this was Nightland, the Moon Deity’s territory.

Three Deities’ eyes fell on Takiribime, making her extremely nervous. She began to wonder about the seriousness of the situation.

“Takiribime, why are you the only one here?” Amaterasu frowned.

Takiribime hurriedly said, “Deity Lord, after Tagitsuhime and I were ordered to go to Mountain Famen…”

She explained everything in detail, “In the end, Tagitsuhime stayed temporarily to observe the mortal samurai. I come back to report!”

“That mortal warrior can cut off the divine power?” Susanoo spoke at this moment. It was thunderous in the shrine’s main hall.

“I have seen it myself!”

“Sasaki Kojiro?” Tsukuyomi frowned, “I have a bit of an impression of this mortal warrior. He once slew several demon beasts in Nightland. He is a katana wielder who wants to pursue the ultimate way of katana. In the mortal world, his katana technique is unparalleled. However, no matter how much progress, he should be unable to cut off the divine power. Right now, he appears mysteriously in the Unripe Rice Village. Could it be?”

Tsukuyomi looked around and saw a dignified look from Amaterasu Omikami and Susanoo.

Takiribime was afraid that mortals could shake the foundation of the deity ruling the world. The Three Deities were vigilant whether the evil spirits who planned to steal the world were behind him.

“I’ll go back to the sea and gather the demons first!” Susanoo stood up without saying a word, “We gather at Mountain Famen three days later!”

“Then, I will go back to Takamagahara first.” Amaterasu Omikami also stood up, “Takiribime, you follow me back first.”

“I shall send the lords off.” Tsukuyomi stood up.

…

It was said to be the Isle of Demon, but to Dazhe, it was more like a place where countless reefs were piled up. The whole island was not too big to speak of, but there was no grass. The place appeared desolated. In addition, dark clouds, lightning, and thunder occupied the sky.

No one knew whether this place was like this every day or whether Dazhe just happened to encounter this weather.

“Stop! Who are you!?”

A towering three-meter-high figure suddenly appeared on the cliff ahead, holding a giant stick full of sharp thorns. He had a horn on his head; he was a crimson one-eyed humanoid monster.

“Is this demon?” Dazhe assessed, then grabbed the key. Blue glitters appeared with vague sword intent circulating the sword.

“How long have you not been in a fight?” Dazhe couldn’t help but shook his head, looking at Zhan Lu’s excitement.

The scarlet demon jumped off at this moment and growled, “Mortal, how dare you ignore me!? I want you to die!”

Dazhe frowned and said, “You aren’t the only one here, right?”

“I alone will be enough to kill you and devour you!” The demon grinned directly.

Dazhe moved his lips but finally did not speak.

Seeing this look, the evil spirit suddenly became angry, “Mortal, how dared you looking down on me!” *Roar!*

“First of all, I shouldn’t taste good.” Dazhe shook his head. “Besides, I don’t want to shatter your self-worth because my partner just said something to me.

“What?”
